Well, after XP installation I found that my Geforce 2 is perform badly in the new Luna interface, try some tweakings, stll not much improvement, I have turn off some animations and even try tweaking it to max performance setting, the 2D desktop still isnt up to the level of w9X/2k kind of speed. I really dont want to turn off Luna, and wonder of any acceleration is available now?

Thank you. :x

Have you installed SP1? IMO, it turns XP from beta to RC status. laugh

The speed of Luna has never really bothered me and I have all the visual effects activated on a PCI Diamond Viper V550 (nVidia Riva TNT chipset). I have found however that different drivers will accelerate the GUI to different extents. For instance, among other problems, the 21.81 (or was it 21.85? I never can remember...) were a real dog with repsect to GUI acceleration. Currently I'm using 30.82 under .NET Server (again with all the Luna stuff turned on. It took me a while to figure out how considering its not activated by default but I managed it in the end) and their pretty decent.

(Oh, and DosFreak: All MS software is effectively beta or RC quality ;))

Hmmm......I have ever met girly that do make-up by using their brain power. Pretty is good but as long as it is not performance hindered, and not hindered by unncessities, IMO. laugh
